I seem to running into the following bug when attempting to perform a yum update: http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=5322
I have been skipping perl to move on. However, I am unable to update perl to the latest i386 release due to what appears to be a mistake in the centOS repo.
The CentOS mirrors have the following: http://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/5/os/i386/CentOS/perl-5.8.8-32.el5_6.3.i386... http://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/5/os/x86_64/CentOS/perl-5.8.8-32.el5_6.3.x8...
http://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/5/updates/i386/RPMS/perl-5.8.8-32.el5_7.6.i... http://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/5/updates/x86_64/RPMS/perl-5.8.8-32.el5_7.6...
*http://mirrors.kernel.org/centos/5/extras/x86_64/RPMS/perl-5.8.8-32.el5_6.3.... ???
When I run a "yum list perl" or "yum update perl.i386" all I see is 5.8.8-32.el5_6.3 in the extras repo. It seems like this file shouldn't even exist. If I disable the repo my yum finds nothing for the i386 release of perl, even though the RPM is present in the updates directory.
Could a maintainer of the repository please put some emphasis on this 2 month old bug?
Thanks, --Blake
